Believe it or not, but the 2013-14 University of Massachusetts hockey season opens up in just over two weeks. Crazy, I know.

To help prepare for the season, the Hockey East Association held its annual media day at the TD Garden in Boston Tuesday. There, UMass hockey broadcaster John Hennessy caught up with Minutemen coach John Micheletto to preview the upcoming season.

Micheletto, entering his second season at the helm in Amherst, touched upon a number of topics, including UMass' goaltending situation and defense, incoming players, Hockey East expansion and his team's quirky scheduling.
